Then we will all stand on the snowy porch in fleece lined bluejeans with mugs of steaming hot coffee, smiling as the kids pull sleds and throw snowballs with their goretex mittens and the neighbor, complete with wool woodsmens coat, brings us the christmas tree he just chopped. The most annoying thing for me is that we will receive two catalogs at the same address simply because we have both ordered items in the past. Campmor is the worst, I've ordered under different variations of my name, and will receive one catalog per nickname. My calls to cancel are not paid attention to.
